Fortnite Discloses X-Men Cosmetic in Recent Leak

Reliable sources suggest Fortnite is soon adding a new Wolverine skin, based on his iconic Weapon X appearance. Fortnite frequently features crossover skins from popular franchises like Marvel and Star Wars; recent examples include Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean. The game's Marvel collaborations began in Season 8 with Black Widow and Star-Lord.

Since then, numerous Marvel heroes and villains have appeared, including several X-Men characters like Gambit, Rogue, Mystique, and recently, Magneto in a Wastelander costume. Wolverine, a key X-Men member, debuted in Fortnite during Chapter 2, Season 4 (2020), with various outfits including his classic comic book attire, his movie look, and the "Wolverine Zero" variant.

Recent leaks indicate Epic Games is adding Wolverine's infamous Weapon X outfit. Fortnite leaker Shiina predicts a July 5th release, part of a five-item cosmetic set. Another leaker, HYPEX, suggests an earlier release between June 28th and July 2nd.

Potential Fortnite Weapon X Wolverine Skin Release Dates:

• Rumored Window: June 28th - July 2nd, 2024
• Rumored Date: July 5th, 2024

The Weapon X outfit is significant, reflecting Wolverine's origins as a government experiment, his Adamantium skeleton, and primal instincts. This look has appeared in various X-Men games like X-Men Legends and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.

While leakers Shiina and HYPEX acknowledge potential date changes, they anticipate an early July release. Further rumors suggest a Chapter 5, Season 4 return of Galactus, though Epic Games hasn't officially confirmed either rumor.
